I have purchased the map updates for my 2011 bmw 535i F-10 but I can't get the RAR files to unzip on my MacBook.
Does anyone have or know the process to unzip the files from a MacBook. thanks. |

Download "The Unarchiver" from the Mac App Store. This app will uncompress RAR files.

This just saved me a bunch of $$.
I just picked up a 2015 535i and was about to pay the dealer for map updates. I downloaded the Next North America 2019-1 map, put it on a USB drive and instead of messing with FSC genenerators, CAT5 cables, I just paid $9 on Ebay for a Lifetime FSC code. The update process was really simple. Plugged in the USB drive and the install began. Took about 30 mins. |

Is this thread still active? Downloaded the update for idrive on my 2011, 535i, but there seems to be no option in the system for updates.

Thanks for an update.
I bought a 2020-1 NEXT maps from eBay for $15. Came with a lifetime update code. Download was rather long but once I decompressed and copied the file to USB stick installation took about 30 minutes. Strangely, I was not asked for the code. |
